Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determi

ned by the equation d = 144 – 16t^2, where t is the number of seconds it takes the car to travel down to each point on the ride. For which interval of time is Greg’s car moving in the air?

Answer:

It takes 3 seconds over the interval [0,3]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find when the roller coaster reaches the ground, find when d=0.

0=144-16t^2

To solve divide each term by 16 and factor:

\frac{0}{16}=\frac{144}{16} -\frac{-16t^2}{16}  \\0= 9 - t^2\\0=(3-t)(3+t)

Solve for t by setting each factor to 0.

t-3=0 so t=3

t+3=0 so t=-3

This means the car is in the air from 0 to 3 second.

What are the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x^3-10x^2+24x
Ludmilka [50]
Replace F(x) with y
y=x^3-10x^2+24x
To find the roots replace y with 0.
0=x^3-10x^2-24x
Rewrite the equation as
x^3-10x^2+24x=0
Factor the left side
x(x-6)(x-4)=0
The solution is a result of
x=0, x-6=0, and x-4=0

The answer is:
x=0, 6, 4

Answer: Choice D) y = \pm \sqrt{x+5}

The steps to finding the inverse will have us swap x and y. Afterward, we solve for y

y = x^2 - 5 \\\\x = y^2 - 5 \\\\x+5 = y^2 \\\\y^2 = x+5 \\\\y = \pm \sqrt{x+5} \\\\

------------------------------

Extra info:

The inverse relation is not a function because of the plus minus. For instance, plugging x = 4 into y = \pm \sqrt{x+5} leads to y = -3 and y = 3 simultaneously. You would have to apply a domain restriction on y = x^2-5 to make it a one-to-one function, to make the inverse a function. One possible domain restriction is x > 0 which would lead to the inverse function y = \sqrt{x+5}
